|July 07, 2024
HOLDING that an ex-army man cannot claim 100% pension unless the injury he sustained is during battle or warlike situation, the Madras High Court has dismissed an appeal filed by an ex-service man who had suffered grievous injuries resulting in amputation of one of his legs while on military duty.

The order was passed by a division bench of Justices SS Sundar and N Senthilkumar recently.
The appeal was filed by S Thangam, a Naik, who suffered grievous injury when the military vehicle he was driving on the Harchandpura bridge across Gaggar river toppled. The accident occurred in 1992. His right leg had to be amputated below the knee.
